Perry's new electronic album

The rocker talks about his own EDM lineage and future while praising Nina Kraviz.

This morning in the opening panel of the EDM Biz conference in Las Vegas at the Cosmopolitan Hotel, Marc Geiger, head of WME’s music department and Perry Farrell, rock singer and founder of Lollapalooza sat down for a long awaited one-on-one conversation. Throughout the somewhat garbled conversation (aided, perhaps, by what appeared to be a cocktail, delivered to Farrell on stage by the conference’s host, Jason Bentley), the Jane’s Addiction front=man Farrell implied that his own electronic music debut could be released soon.

Both Geiger and Farrell shared how some of their experiences from the early days of Lollapalooza could be applied to dance music festivals of today, especially those going through some growing pains. Specifically, Geiger discussed the need for festivals to evolve to keep up with infrastructure demands while maintaining the creative core of what made them successful in the first place. “Post-consolidation the creators need to get creative again,” Geiger told the crowd.

During their conversation, Geiger and Farrell affirmed their respective credentials within the dance music community. It was soon after Lollapalooza’s initial success, when Farrell created the all-electronic ill-fated ENIT Festival. While it failed to achieve the level of endurance that Electric Daisy Carnival has (while also costing what Farrell says was a $1 million of his own money), it left him undeterred from continuing to expand his own repertoire beyond rock music. Today is he is deeply involved in an immersive musical experience with electronic music inspired by New York’s Sleep No More interactive theater shows.

For his own electronic music album Farrell says he collaborated with his friend, DJ Alex Graham as well as Joachim Gerraud, who recently relocated to Los Angeles, in part to work with Farrell. “He’s got a whomping sound but it’s classy,” Farrell says of the French producer, known largely for his work with David Guetta.

When asked what contemporary artists Farrell is currently listening to, he mentioned techno stalwarts like Guy Gerber and Richie Hawtin as well as Jamie Jones and Nina Kraviz.

“She’s hot, she’s sexy,” Farrell said of Kraviz. “She DJs and she just hangs out, but she’s got good taste.”

“She’s a Russian girl who knows how to hold a cigarette,” Geiger added, admiringly.

there is no way this could ever be good. no way. can't wait to hear it though. should make for some good laughs.

[Larry B.]

Isn't Perry's saying "I'm gonna release an electronic album" similar to Perry's saying "Jane's Addiction has material for 3 albums, to be released this spring"?

“He’s got a whomping sound but it’s classy,"

Classy electronic music ??

[Matz]

some electronic music is 'classier' than other stuff. Like Skrillex is less classy than Aphex Twin e.g imo. So I think I follow him, still it's not a word I'd use probably.

Don't land on the guy for everything

That's probably the most unflattering photo of Perry's face I've ever seen. He actually looks like to soon to be former Mayor of LA.

[creep]

either it's a weird shot or perry had some work done on his face. he does look odd.

[Juana]

and of course .. the cherry on top .. giraffe tongue orchestra!!!

GTO is probably going to turn out to be pretty good. Knowing that Jon is still on it, tells me it will not suck.

[Kajicat]

Looks like a Miami drug lord from 1988 in that pic.

[JOEinPHX]

He looks like little Steven.

The album is not out yet and it's already better than Eric A. electronic solo.
Life.Time: the worst electronic piece of shit of all time hands down.

What the hell has happened to him?

Perry Farrell's UNIVERSAL LOVE MACHINE lives!!!

[Tyler Durden]

I am SO HAPPY Perry has decided to revisit the followup to UltraPayloaded. As some of you may already know, Perry wrote the album Universal Love Machine back in 2007 and had planned on it being a conceptual album, stage play/theatrical production with full symphony orchestra and rotating DJs, multimedia package tour and visual delight! The story that inspired the album is about a man-like android who DJs at night and falls in love with a human female nurse who frequents his club. The songs explore the struggles between the two individuals and whether they can sustain love, being from two different worlds.

Some music industry insiders and critics have already asked if the track "The Four Stringed Imposter" is about former Jane's Addiction bassist Eric Avery. Farrell denies that claim and has stated it is about "a backstabber, a deceiver, a double-crosser...something that all music listeners can relate to having dealt with. Y'know, when you treat someone like shit and then they have the gall to retaliate on your ass?! Something like that, anyway."

Farrell has stated that the Universal Love Machine tour/experience will be in major cities this fall and expects all audience members to dress up in costume for the occasion and to bring written dialogue and scripts that he and his band plan to incorporate into the show. The first single "Embrace The Dance Floor" will be released September 4th, with an accompanying music video featuring the two characters falling love in a space-themed dance club and then flying through the galaxy to bring the party back down to Earth!

We really need to start leaking these posts as real news somewhere.

Creep? Hoka?

[perkana]

Tyler is on roll

[Matz]

nice work TD

[SR]

Yes, that was better than a chuckle TD.....and there has been some fictional discourse written in a few threads that have also been hysterical.

One of the writers needs to start a thread so that it's not lost on the targets.

[zendo]

That's genius Tyler thanks!
